Wendy:
The comparison and contrast in your poem (around a joyous holiday) is excellent. So many people and animals don't have voices; many are often victims of injustice. I'm glad you speak out for them and call attention to the plight of many.
Good luck with this wonderful poem, Wendy.
Blessings,
Cindy

Comment from Douglas Goff
This is very true and very good. The strong must always stand up for the weak.
The system is Run by PEOPLE. Justice will only come from just people.
This was a thinking piece. Nicely done!

Comment from Sarah Das Gupta
Bullying is certainly a dreadful thing which blights many lives- especially the lives of children! The social media is partly to blame. This is a strongly written, emotive poem!

I love the way you have examined your feelings of injustice through poetry, each line a reminder of injustices that often go unnoticed in our busy world. You tell us to pay attention, to care, and to speak up. Well done. Good luck and Merry Christmas.

Yes! Use your voice for good. Stand up against the wrong and the injustices. This is a passion of mine also. I can clearly see your passion burning in this poem for humanity and nature. I love the rhyme and sentiments and the emotive words you use. Some longer lines with more syllables change the rhythmic feels so there are places where it doesn't flow as smoothly. A strong message!

Thank you for a lovely review. You are quite right about the metre (it's not my strength, and I tend to sacrifice metre to what I want to say!) but I'll take another look. Thank you again.

I so agree with you hear, there are so many injustices in the world and jealous people who cause harm to others. It is distressing, especially when it involves children and animals who at the mercy of adults, a poignant and melancholy write, love Dolly x
